In this excerpt from "a modest proposal" by johnathan swift, what does the author list?
i can think of no one objection, that will possibly be raised against this proposal, unless it should be urged, that the number of people will
be thereby much lessened in the kingdom. this i freely own, and 'twas indeed one principal design in offering it to the world. i desire the
reader will observe, that i calculate my remedy for this one individual kingdom of ireland, and for no other that ever was, is, or, i think,
ever can be upon earth. therefore let no man talk to me of other expedients: of taxing our absentees at five shillings a pound: of using
neither cloaths, nor houshold furniture, except what is of our own growth and manufacture: of utterly rejecting the materials and
instruments that promote foreign luxury: of curing the expensiveness of pride, vanity, idleness, and gaming in our women: of
introducing a vein of parsimony, prudence and temperance: of learning to love our country, wherein we differ even from laplanders, and
the inhabitants of topinamboo: of quitting our animosities and factions, nor acting any longer like the jews, who were murdering one
another at the very moment their city was taken: of being a little cautious not to sell our country and consciences for nothing: of
teaching landlords to have at least one degree of mercy towards their tenants. lastly, of putting a spirit of honesty, industry, and skill into
our shop-keepers, who, if a resolution could now be taken to buy only our native goods, would immediately unite to cheat and exact
upon us in the price, the measure, and the goodness, nor could ever yet be brought to make one fair proposal of just dealing, though
often and earnestly invited to it.

Read this excerpt from leo tolstoy's the death of ivan ilyich her attitude towards him and his diseases is still the same just as the doctor had adopted a certain relation to his patient which he could not abandon, so had she formed one towards him—that he was not doing something he ought to do and was himself to blame, and that she reproached him lovingly for this--and she could not now change that attitude. "you see he doesn't listen to me and doesn't take his medicine at the proper time. and above all he lies in a position that is no doubt bad for him.- with his legs up" she described how he made gerasim hold his legs up the doctor smiled with a contemptuous affability that said"what's to be done? these sick people do have foolish fancles of that kind, but we must forgive them they all rose, said good-night and went away when they had gone it seemed to ivan ilyich that he felt better, the falsity had gone with them. but the pain remained--that same pain and that same fear that made everything monotonously alike, nothing harder and nothing easier. everything was worse again minute followed minute and hour followed hour everything remained the same and there was no cessation. and the inevitable end of it all became more and more terrible based on the excerpt, how is praskovya fedorovna a character foil to ivan ilyich? a. she is kind and takes care of ivan, which is why he feels guilty about how he treated her for most of their married life • b. she is vindictive toward ivan while pretending to be worried about him, thus reminding him of how his family has never forgiven him she plays the part of the worried wife without any real feeling, symbolizing the false propriety ivan upheld but now hates c. d. she is young, healthy, and beautiful-everything ivan can never be again and wishes he could return to
